Even after Bedi Twitter apology, the first “Buddha” serial with misinformation

Creating misinformation on Buddha birthplace from Indian side is not a new issue and Nepali side is very furious from this kind of regular drama and attempt to take an unnecessary advantage from Buddha’s Global importance. A recent Hindi language television serial, “Buddha” launched by Zee TV Network already frustrated Nepalese by Indian over interference.

Buddha’s one of the most important teachings is not to lie. So taking an advantage in the name of Buddha, our Indian colleagues activities are ruining their reputation by themselves in the whole world because of time to time regular misinformation intentionally on Buddha birth place and as a neighbour we are worried about its this kind of status and would like to suggest to be honest at least on Buddha issue. It is not necessary to mention here proofs on Buddha birth place as your time to time apologies and Indian embassy Facebook statuses after protests against your misguided misinformation could be enough to prove it.

I don’t think there is to create such a misunderstanding just because of Buddha serial. It is a very good art for offspring of Buddhist devotee in the future. As per my understanding, the serial doesn’t says that Buddha is born in India or some other place than Nepal. The actor in the show time and again spokes Kapilvastu, which means the show is on going on this place. That makes clear that the Buddha is born in Kapilvastu Lumbani Nepal.

And one thing we have to know is during the rule of Buddha, there was no such segregation of places. There was no such place called Nepal. Later on because of luck on Nepali generation the Buddha place falls under Country Nepal. On the eye of Buddha, all the places are mother land, all the living sentiments are family and Buddha loves them. What is there to complicate with Buddha birth place. The history and research says that the Buddha was born in Lumbine, Kapilvastu and today this place is in Nepal and preserved by the government and public of Nepal. The line is clear to the entire world.
I request as a Buddhist that please don’t make the sense of Buddha useless. There is no reason of complication the history of Buddha. Better preserve the place and offer to the new generation Buddhist devotee. There is no reason to fight without reason. The real Buddhist devotee will never mix up the concept. Never commercialize spiritual habitat, it will lead to suffering.
